Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 Hold on

Hold on to yourself

 for this is gonna hurt like hell

 Hold on

Hold on to yourself

 you know that only time will tell

 What is it in me that refuses to believe

 this isn't easier than the real thing

(SAME AS ABOVE)

My love

you know that you're my best friend

you know I'd do anything for you

my love

let nothing come between us

my love for you is strong & true

 Am I in heaven here or am I...

 at the crossroads I am standing

 So now you're sleeping peaceful

 I lie awake & pray

 that you'll be strong tomorrow & we'll

 see another day & we will praise it

 & love the light that brings a smile

 across your face

Oh god if you're out there

won't you hear me

I know that we've never talked before

oh god the man I love is leaving

won't you take him

when he comes to your door

Am I in heaven here or am I in hell

at the crossroads I am standing

So now you're sleeping peaceful

I lie awake & pray

that you'll be strong tomorrow & we'll

see another day & we will praise it

& love the light that brings a smile

across your face...

Hold on

hold on to yourself

for this is gonna hurt like hell
